Friday - End to a tough week

Well the end of the week final arrived, and I'm now able to have a lie in and just forget about work for a bit. I want to just for get about the redundancy situation for a few days and clear my head, so last night i decided to go to Goose Fair with a couple of friends which really helped me to forget about reality for a few hours. We had so much fun i only went on 3 rides but it was still such a laugh. We first went on a Ferris wheel because one of my other friends asked me to get a good picture of the whole thing if i could, so i did (it wasn't a great picture a bit blurry) We then went the waltzers (obviously, you cant go the fair and not go on them) We then went in the fun house which was childish i know but still hilarious, i almost did the splits at one point, but i did manage to stay up right in the hamster wheel lol.

The only downside to the fair is the crowds - i hate them lol. It was quite a challenge when i got my yummy cadbury hot chocolate with cream and a flake to keep it in the cup and not burn myself or anyone else, my friend did get knocked and her hot chocolate nearly went over my face lol.

Luckily nothing bad happened whilst we were at the fair as there is a reputation for things to happen, but as far as i could see everyone was having a good time, we were there quite a while, we were only going for an hour or so but ended up staying about 3 or 4 hours! Time flies when you are having fun.

My other friend who i work with went to the fair on Thursday night and got some candy floss which we both ate for breakfast on Friday morning at work - we are allowed we are both up for redundancy!! She also hooked a duck and won me a duck teddy (who we have now named Polly)

Anyway no new update really on the job hunting just that i have applied for a couple more but again have to wait and see, i hate waiting i am so impatient.

Mum and Dad are coming to visit tomorrow, cant wait they are bringing me some bits and bobs down with them, mainly food :) Cant wait to see them both haven't seen them for a few months now, miss them both all the time. I cant wait till i get a job, which is hopefully well paid so i can go visit them more. I was hoping this year to go to theirs for Christmas because i love going there for xmas, my dad makes the most amazing Christmas dinner :) and they always have their decorations up, and my mum always enters the village window decorating competition, she has won a couple of times before (she even framed the certificates bless her) Its even better when its been snowing it makes it perfect (although you usually get snowed in because they live in a dip so they are surrounded by hills. But my boyfriend wants to spend xmas with his dad and his dads girlfriend, so i guess i will have to compromise and spend xmas there and New Year at my mum and dad's??


Anyway i think i have gone on for quite a bit now so will finish it here for now. x

A one year old has added me on facebook!!??

I really though i had got a new friend when my phone flashed at me and said i had a friend request, but it turned out to be my boyfriends cousins daughter who happens to be one! I may sound boring but isn't that just a tad bit sad that you have to go and set up a facebook page for your one year old?? What use is it exactly??  Cant they wait until the child is old enough to set a social network page up themselves?

Its not just children either it is peoples pets! I just tend to ignore these requests, but why do people do this? Isn't there an age limit? As I'm sure i had a birthday notification saying that someone was about 20 when they were still in secondary school!

I do like using facebook because it keeps me in contact with my family but there are just some people who annoy me slightly, there was one person who had a rant on their wall and then later posted why do people stick their noses into business that isn't theirs?!?!?!?! Its because you broadcast it to the world.

Anyway enough of the ranting, i have so far applied for 2 jobs which look really good so i hope i get them, i have seen one or two jobs within the NHS but we all know the government is adamant in cutting costs!!

Me and me work mate who are both up for redundancy keep thinking about how strange it will be not working together any more, she said she even nearly started crying because she saw mini marsh mellows and it reminded her of when we made hot chocolates with marsh mellows last year :(

So its not really just the money worries its also missing the people i have come to know so well.
